How to mount a headlight on V20c?

[HeyHealy]

I bought the light mount stub and headlight from Cruzbike, but I didn't realize it doesn't work on the V20c.

The directions appear to be for S40/Q45 only.

What's the best way to mount a headlight on the V20c?

There is a specific bracket for the V20C:

V20c Light Mount

Lightweight light mount made for the fastest recumbent road bike - the Cruzbike Vendetta V20c. This light mount works only for the V20c and screws into the chainstay bracket that encircles the bottom bracket shell. Purchase it with the Origen8 light mount stub and Cygolite Dash headlight to...

cruzbike.com

Basically just a custom made L

Aha, thank you. So I missed getting that specific component. I'll order it.

I went with a GoPro style mount from Amazon and a GoPro adapter for my Fenix light. This approach gave a lower profile cleaner mount system.

I swapped out the mount screws that came with the mount for those of the proper size for the v20c threads.

Hi,
Just finished a 3d printed bracket and mount for my new Ravemen FR300. Used a Garmin receptacle with the bracket. I like having my light higher for improved visibility/conspecuity by oncoming traffic. The negative is having this in your field of view when riding. Always tradeoffs. Cheers and safe riding.

If you turn a spare clamp upside down, then a stem light mount will centre the headlight nicely. I just used the S-shaped element, not the stem clamp itself.
